1742nd BLOG POST -->>

Sometimes few people or books or
things change your life at the most unexpected time and your life doesn’t
remain same after that. I was in 12th standard and had no goals or
objectives in life. The only thing I loved was to be on text messages with my
loved ones and spend as much time as possible over it. Similarly, cyber cafes
in India was a new thing then and I loved surfing Internet and exploring new
websites every now and then without even realizing the amount of money, time
and energy I was wasting in it. One day, someone asked me to read this book by
an author called Robin Sharma named “Who Will Cry When You Die?”. I liked the
book’s title like anything as I was having suicidal tendency then and I thought
it is something which I would like to read and know.

The very next day I went to the
railway station’s Wheeler Book Store and asked for this book. I saw that the
book has 100 chapters of a page each which seemed easy to finish. I finished
that book within a night and when I turned its last page, I was a self-realized
and self-evaluated person already. I had got changed for life. I understood how
important this small thing called Life is and how big we can transform it into
with just few basic manipulations in our daily routine. I went to the Railway
station again on the next day and bought “The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari”- the
most popular book of Robin Sharma. After reading this one, I just couldn’t
sleep for some days in frustration and irritation of how much I have already
ended up wasting myself.

Few days after this, the first
Big Bazaar got opened in our city and I went with my mother for some shopping.
There was a small book section there which luckily had only Robin Sharma’s
books and one copy each of only those books which I had not read till then. I
went to my Mother and requested her if she can buy all of them for me. They
were quite sum of amount considering the middle-class budget. My mother rather
than giving silly excuses of buying and finishing one and then going on for
purchasing the next book, in a hope that at least her only son is thinking of
reading something allowed me to put all the books in the cart. After some days
we went for vacation to our native town which has 36 hours of railway journey.
I carried all these dozen books of Mr. Robin and finished all of them in the
journey and at my native town under open environment in my maternal grandfather’s
farmhouse.

After reading all his books which
were published then in 2010, I was someone with whom even I started enjoying
the company. I had become so positive and wilful. I never said NO to any
challenge post then and did some tasks I believed earlier I would have never
been able to even discuss them leave picking them up and actually executing them.
A boy who was failure at everything started getting better. The one who failed
twice in his Junior College passed his High-school, bachelor’s degree and two
Master’s degree without failing in any subject even once. Even with Blog that I
created myself, I have been able to take it up to a certain level all by myself
just with the belief, confidence, inspiration, energy, motivation and will this
man called Robin Sharma has charged into me.

He is the only writer in whose
work I find every sentence a motivational quote. He just does not know how to
write a normal sentence. Every sentence he writes is like those great carvings
on Taj Mahal. It seems he has taken a lifetime to craft each sentence. Every
sentence is legendary and special and impactful and what not. His words are
epitome of energy and there can be nothing over that which you can point at and
say makes you feel limitless as human being. I had wanted so much to meet him
since I finished completing just his first book which had changed my thought
process for the very 1st time but I knew it was nearly impossible
considering he stays in USA and comes India very rarely. But fortunately, with
an event being arranged by Jaico Publication and Crossword Book Store, I booked
my tickets for this special workshop which was to be conducted by the man
himself on the principles he has discussed in his latest book named “The 5 AM
Club”.

I had gone with so much of
emotions that I am going to experience a person live who has changed my life
that I was uncertain how I would react on seeing him in flesh and blood infront
of me. And how should I express my feeling of seeing him speak in front of me
and providing so much of motivation, inspiration with his great insights on
life. He is a man with such positive vibes that the moment I saw him in front
of me and till now after 9 hours of it, I can still feel the vibrations and
energy within me. And this is not a normal excited feeling which shall go away
after some time. It has 100x impact than what his book has had over me. Now I
am beginning to look at my life ahead with more excitement and energy. The
handshake opportunity that I had with him shall stay with me all my life to
pull me up whenever I fall down in life.

It has been such a Dream Come
True moment for me. 16th February has become an immortal date for me
now which shall be celebrated each day in the memory of this special day which
has surely transformed my life little more the impact of which shall be visible
sooner and stay for the longest possible time. I thank the organizers for
making it possible and also would like to appreciate Tisca Chopra for
conducting such a beautiful session for a short period when she was on stage
with him.
